Iceage

On their just-released third album, Plowing Into the Field of Love, Danish punks Iceage have caught fans off guard by eschewing their signature post-punk noise for something a little darker; more country-tinged and Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds sounding — complete with strings and a horn section. Frontman Elias Bender Rønnenfelt’s vocals still brim with attitude and punk angst, though, and in a recent interview with Noisey he defiantly explained the new sound by saying the group wanted to “destroy some of the expectations on what kind of band we are. We belong to no one.” Still punk as fuck, then.
